Ed. Rucker, who, it will be re-
membered, had little affair with a
pistol few days ago, at Lewisburg,
and who was member of the last
Law class at the University, has
written Prof. Wiley his version of
the affair. Prof. Wiley has permit
ted us to take the following extract
from the letter:
On the evening of the 18th | called
on some young ladies by invitation
to introduce some friends. The
ladies were neices of the owner of
the house. While there, young
Beirne, their cousin, took advantage
of the opportunity to grossly insult
me in his own fathers house, and re-
fused to settle the matter then,
though l called him every insulting
epithet / ever heard. His constant
reply was that he would settle the
next morning with pistols. The
next morning we met and / again
approached him asking him how we
would settle it. He with his hand
on his pistol replied by referring me
to a friend. / then told him he
was coward and raising a light
cane l carried dared him to draw his
pistol from his pocket. He twice as
sured me that he was unarmed, yet
when l started to leave drew his pis-

matter with our fists, Che is 30

The Eccle siastica Bill.

BERLIN, April 21.-The debate on the
ecclesiastical bill was bel gun in the
lower house of the Prussian Diet to-
day.
DIR. Windthorst, Clerical leader, de-
clared that the Center party partly SUBJ
mitted to the Poge's wishes in voting
for the bill as It passed the upper
house. and without offering any of The
amendments which the Center had in
tended to propose as necessary to make
the bill entirely acceptable to the Cath

DR.. Windhorst added, would renew the
fight against government if at any time
the Catholic interests were affected.
Bismarck was in the house when the
bill passed.
Before the vote was taken, Bismarck
declared that If the. bill was rejected he
would abandon his Office as president
of the Ministry of State for Prussia and
devote his entire time to the service of
the Empire. LAS perhaps" he said,
"a hard external and internal struggle

GOLD BRICK TRICK.
A Wealthy New Yorker Has a
New Experience.
TT. WILL COST HIM $4,000.
Four Bricks Sent TO the New York
Assay Office Prove to be
Sounding Brass.
The Gold Brick Trick.

NEW YORK, April 21.-An evening
paper prints the following: What bids
fair to develop into a big gold brick
swindle came to light to-day at the
United States assay Office. Yesterday q
well known and wealthy gentleman
OF this city deposited four large bars
supposed to be gold with the assayer
to be refined and made into standard
gold bars. The gentleman said the
bars were from California, and were
estimated to be worth about $40 ,0G0
each or $40 go for the four, and that
the assay which he had made before
showed the bars to be about " per cent.
fine The bars were received and re-
ceipted for in the usual manner and the
gentleman departed In full confidence
that he had $4,000 in gold in the
hands of Uncle Sam. The suspicious Of
Graham, receiver of deposits, were
excited by the light weight of the bars,
their specific gravity being only about
SO, whereas the specific gravity of gold
is 1913. Samples were taken from the
four bars and assayed when it was
found the bars were of copper with a
thin wash of gold on the outside. In
short the four bars turned out to be
worth about $4 instead of S40, 600. Up
to noon to-day the gentleman had not
called TO ascertain the result OF the
assay. 1t is evident fraud has been
penetrated on him, and that he Is
numbered among the victims Of the
gold brick trick.

Prussian Diet - Arrest of M.
hchsnaebles-Othe Notes,
Too Horrible for Belief.

ST. LOUIS, April 2l.-A dispatch from
the City of Mexico gives account of a
most horrible and bloody affair in the
little city of Patzsuero, last Wednesday
night. The wife of Juan Ramierze was
the acknowledged belle of the town.
and great favorite. Three policemen
entered into plot to outrage her, and
on the night mentioned they went to
Ramierze's house, which was in the SUBJ
urbs. entered her bedroom and nearly
butchered him with knives, inaicting
twenty wounds upon his body. The
spouting blood deluged the wife as she
lay beside her husband and she tainted.
Alter Ramiereze vas dead they restored
the wife to consciousness, and then car
ried out their hellish plot, leaving the
poor woman almost dead. The men
fed to the interior on horseback, but
TWO OF them have been captured, and
the third will be, as the whole country
was aroused and intense excitement
prevailed.

The Las Vegas Grant.

WASHINGTON, April 21.-Upon the rec
ommendation of the surveYor-genersl
of New Mexico, Commissioner Sparks
of the general land office, has ordered
that the tract known as the LAS Vegas
grant" in New Mexico, be resuryeyed
The surveyor general in his report upon
which the order of resurvey was mad
saws: "The present. survey embr ace,
nearly 200 acres of land and is mai =
ifestly indefensible;; that, 1.-The paper
shows grant for agricultural purposes,
of numerous specified alIotments OF
land amounting to perhaps 10000
acres, the particular areas of
which several tracts can only
be determined by a survey -
that, the remainder of the land
included in the boundaries speci-
fed was evidently intended for
pasturage, AID the grant provides that
these lands and their waters shall be
free to all; ;" that lit was the custom of
the Mexican government to grant in fee
pasture land to the extent of nearly
SOC, 900 acres as claimed in this case.
For these and other reasons the land
should be resurveyed, and a patent is
sued for the land actually granted for
agricultural purposes, thus settling the
vexed question of the the title and re-
storing to the public domain and actual
settlement large body OF desirable
land" Las Vegas, one of the import
ant towns of the territory OF New Mex
leo, is located on this tract.

Trouble Ahead.

PARIS, April 21.-M. Schanaebles,
special French commlssary at Pagny-
Sur-Moselle depot, has been arrested
by Germany. He had received several
letters from the German police com.
missioner at AIRS. asking him to come
to that place aud confer with him re-
garding the frontier service. He finally
agreed to do so. While on his way to
AIRS he was roughly seized by German
police and taken to Noreant from which
place he was sent to Metz. The Metzer
Zeitung says Schanaebles' 4 arrest is due
to his connection with the anti-German
agitation conducted by the patriotic
league, but the people of Pagy-Sur-
Moselle declare this to be entirely un-
true and say he had nothing to do with
the agitation. The incident has thrown
the Inhabitants Metz and Nancy into
the widest state of excitement.
4 p. m.-Rentes were unfavorably af
fected by the arrest of Schauaebles. The
market for per cent. rentes for &C
count b came fiat and quotations de-
clined A confines during the afternoon
closing at the lowest price.
PARIS, April 2l.-The arrest of
Schanaebles, has promised profound
sensation, and II is feared 1t may lead
to unfortunate results. lie Paris calls
it Another Provocation," and asks If
Bismarck is seeking another. casus beIli.
The Germans requested Schanaebeles to
set up one of the posts which mark the
frontier line. The commisssry crossed
the boundary and advanced few yards
on German soil, when he was seized by
the German police agents, who were
disguised in gray blouses. He
knocked the agents down and
escaped back to French territory.
but was again seized, handcutfed and
sent to Metz. where he was placed in a
prison in which accused persons are
confined before trial. The warrant for
the arrest emanated from the public
prosecutor at Metz, who acted under
instructions from Strasburg. The
French prosecutor at Nancy has gone
to Pagny to inquire into the affair.
Most of the Paris papers make no COM
ment on this incident.
Liberte says it is expedient to refrain .
from comment until Germany shall
have explained the occurrence.

The Stomach Distils Acids.

These, if existent in a natural guam
tity, and unvitiated by bile. play their
part in the functions of digestion and
assimilation. But the artificial acid re-
sulting from the inability of the stom-
ach to convert food received by it into
sustenance, is the producer of fatu-
Ience and heartburn, which are the
most harrassing symptoms of dyspep-
sis. The best carminative is Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters. Far more effec-
tive is it than carbonate of soda,
magnesia or other alkaline salts. These
Invariably weaken the stomach, with
out producing permanent benefit. No
r,an or woman chronically dyspeptic,
aDd consequently nervous, can be in
po.ssssi.n Of the full measure of vigor
allowed by nature. Therefore, invigor-
a.s and regulate the system, and by SO
doing protect il from malaria, rhsuma-
ism and other serious maladiss.

road affairs. The questions will require

and the Commissioners will all leave
